Recent events in the UK Parliament have highlighted the urgent need for improved diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic and bowel cancer. Representatives from various political parties attended events organized by Pancreatic Cancer UK and Bowel Cancer UK, emphasizing the need for a #FasterFairerFunded pathway for pancreatic cancer and earlier diagnosis for bowel cancer. The survival rate for pancreatic cancer beyond 5 years remains at just 7%, prompting calls for increased support and funding for research and treatment. The Labour party has outlined plans to expand diagnostic capacity, harness advances in medicine and technology, and reduce waiting times to improve cancer care in the NHS.
